Thanks Dug, We've debated back and forth on the seats and will go the original route. We do plan to long haul and figure we can handle 5 or 6 hours in them. We did in the black truck. And if we can't, we will change them out in the future. The drill press was pretty handy for drilling all the holes for the welds.

Plug welds on the floor are done. Everything fits solid and tight. Still have to form the pieces for the outer edges of the toe board, then seam seal and coat. Going to leave the tranny hump off until we determine transmission bell housing clearance.
